Tory MP Brian Binley attacks against David Cameron for hiring Andy Coulson.

The  Tory MP Brian Binley criticized David Cameron,  for hiring Mr Coulson as his main communication chief. Coulson used to be the editor for the World and was under fire because he was charged with perjury. He was one of the editors involved in the “phone hacking” scandal (the Leveson  inquiry) .  Mr.  Binley  said that Cameron should have asked for advice before he appointed his new communication chief. He accuses Cameron of not having enough experience in business management.

 The Leveson inquiry , set up by Cameron himself , was an inquiry into media ethics and the closeness of the relationship between the Government and media icon Rupert Murdoch.  People close to Cameron say Cameron regrets setting up the inquiry as the focus has switched from media to politics.

Reaction.

I have chosen this article because it was interesting to see what English politicians are dealing with at the moment. This issue has not been in the Dutch newspapers. We know about the phone-hacking scandal but I didn’t know Cameron had hired one of the editors involved in this scandal. I think this Binley is right in saying that Cameron should have asked advice. I think it is very naïve to hire a man with this kind of reputation to become the Prime minister’s  communication chief.  It shows that people in power sometimes think they are above criticism.
